(A) An older small cortical infarction is depicted on the flat detector CT (FDCT) scan after carotid artery stenting (A, black arrow). No acute ischemic lesions were detected on this scan. The same lesion can be confirmed on multidetector CT (MDCT) (B, black arrow). (C, D) CT images prior to thrombectomy and at follow-up. Acute ischemic lesions can be seen on non-contrast FDCT (C, black arrowheads) performed prior to thrombectomy. An intracranial hemorrhage can be excluded and an Alberta Stroke Program early CT Scale (ASPECTS) score of 7 can be rated on FDCT images. Ischemic lesions are confirmed on follow-up MDCT images (D, black arrowheads) after rapid reperfusion.
